Mike Trout filled up the boxscore in his return to the leadoff spot Saturday, going 3-for-5 with a bases-loaded walk, two runs scored and a stolen base in a 9-5 win over the Red Sox.

Trout had two doubles, both of which went off the top of the Green Monster. His return to the leadoff spot couldn't have gone much better, so Angels manager Mike Scioscia figures to stick with him there for now. Peter Bourjos (hamstring) could be alternative when he comes off the disabled list.

He drove in five runs in all, and he became the youngest player to hit for the cycle since Mel Ott in 1929. Trout has his average up to .293, and he's currently on pace to finish the season with 32 homers, 112 runs scored, 122 RBI and 32 steals.

Meanwhile, Alberto Callaspo will bat leadoff against right-hander A.J. Griffin. This marks the first time that Trout has batted anywhere other than the leadoff spot since his 40-game stint with the Angels in 2011. Angels manager Mike Scioscia is trying to be creative following three straight losses and the absence of Erick Aybar.

Mike Trout stuffed the box score in Friday’s loss to the Dodgers, going 2-for-3 with a homer, two runs scored, three RBI and a stolen base.

Trout is now hitting a spectacular .368/.486/.649 on the spring with two homers, 13 RBI and six steals. While many have predicted quite a bit of regression from his unbelievable rookie season, the reigning AL Rookie of the Year has looked like exactly the same player as he was in 2012.
